“A fabulous family-friendly cornucopia of music, mime, and special effects.” ArtsHub website, Australia
“SIRO-A are highly accomplished performers, and they use their great big box of tricks to great effect... A brilliant, bright and beautiful show.” Total Theatre, UK
“A mad, clever, bonkers, whirlwind of crazy and fun.” Entertainment Focus, UK
Techno Circus is an interactive multimedia physical theatre. The four performers interacting dance, shadow-puppetry and comedy mime with spectacular projection, light animation and pulsating electro beats will create breathtaking optical illusions with 'sound' and 'light' which is a feast for the senses.
Audience can enjoy the fabulous performance live-streamed direct from Sendai to Hong Kong in real time, with an interactive session with the performers at the end.
The running time of each performance is approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes without intermission.
